This younger version, supposedly hailing from 1999, a year before the first X-Men flick was released, answers questions while sitting in front of lava lamps and a Furby.

He’s surprised to learn the movie would become a big hit despite naysayers’ insistence that he not take a role in what was Hollywood’s first major superhero blockbuster.

The faux-interview is quite clever, with the 45-year-old Jackman informing his younger self that he’d become “by far and away the biggest star ever, ever to actually be in motion pictures,” otherwise known as Huge Jackman.

It’s a convenient way to get Jackman to reflect on his best movies and the regret of having done Movie 43, in which testicles dangled from his neck.
